Catching up a little....(lots of pics)

Need to do a little catching up, been doing a little traveling here and there (the Outer Banks

and mountains of NC). But that didn't stop me from adding to the Sicuro's!! I still love my Invicta's, my SAN III's, Ibiza's and RD's but the newer stuff hasn't been

singing to me, so I've branched out a little with three firsts for me...an Adee Kaye, an

Akribos and a mini grail of mine, a Sotomarino Italia Squallo Martello. Here are some pics:

I'll start with my most pleasant surprise, an Adee Kaye Guardian. I've seen them around,

Adee Kaye that is, but this one drew my attention at some other bid sites I frequent. Then,

low and behold, kurt had one he was offering up for trade. We struck a deal and it's been a big surprise! A nice hefty feel, good size (it's advertised as 50mm but wears more like 48),

keeps great time and has a good feel on the wrist. The bold chunkiness of it drew my eye.

Another nice surprise, a military inspired Akribos with dual time and big date. Very comfy watch on leather and cool summer color!

Yeah, I've been doing the same for the longest time. Last I looked, Precisiontime had the 3

hand for around $175 and the chrono around $225. Been waiting for the 3 hand to drop back

down to $125 again, but, I got this one for $115...shipped!!! And it's perfect!

I've been ecstatic. The Akribos was only $65 on a Bidz.com site! Thanks all...lovin these recent pick ups, BIG surprises all.
